Went wheeling again today after school and explored more of the trail and discovered a really nice clearing for some camping!

The Coopers have been great so far! They grip pretty good on road, havent had a complaint as far as wet roads but they do hum a bit ofcourse. And their performance offroad have been superb so far and they wear quite well too! I bought them at around 35% tread and they havent changed much in the 3 months of heavy road use so i highly recommend them!

I've considered the STT, but may end up with the Walmart branded Duratrac. Love the look of the BFG TKO, but it's pricier than I like. Another option may be the General AT2. Decisions! Decisions!

So what's next on your build list?
